Billy Idol - Kings & Queens Of The Underground

Born in a time That wasn’t made to last In 1977 – it went fast Johnny told us to rise Not to give a shit And then “Kiss Me Deadly” And we had a hit Last night in the Roxy We made love on the floor We shot up in the bathroom And said we were bored If you are here tonight And you hear these sounds We are still kings & queens of the underground I don’t mean to be profound But if I’m still around We are still kings & queens Of the underground 1984 and “Rebel Yell” had the floor All they said, was “more more more” Well I touched you with My “Eyes Without A Face” I was “Hot In The City” Yes, I thought I was ace I didn’t know then When I was in your front room On MTV, baby I was high as the moon If you are here tonight And you hear these sounds We are still kings & queens Of the underground I don’t mean to be profound But if I’m still around We are still kings & queens of the underground Ooh, ooh, golden years Sold all my vinyl It went up my arm And I thought rock and roll Couldn’t do me no harm Now I’m rolling a joint And I’m dressed in black If we lose the music baby We can never go back And if you’re here tonight And you hear these sounds We are still kings & queens of the underground I don’t mean to be profound But if I’m still around We are still kings & queens Of the underground Jonesy said, “Bill, don’t be profound, If you are still a king of the underground” If you hear my voice And you dig these rebel sounds Still kings & queens of the underground Here tonight I wanna dig these sounds I’m still a king of the underground If you hear my voice Dig these rebel sounds We’re still kings & queens of the underground Ooh, ooh, golden years
